How to make Android's built in search bar invoke Firefox for Android?
Firefox for Android is already my default browser, yet Android's built in search widget that seems to be on the home screen when any Android phone is unboxed is still invoking the default browser. An other thing to note is my phone has Android 4.1 and came with chrome preinstalled yet the old default browser that came with older versions of Android also came preinstalled, and was the original default browser on my phone, not chrome as my reading of recent web chatter had led me believe.

Hey,
Unfortunately I can't see obviously any way to do that without customizing source code.
Sorry!

Yeah my phone is too cheap for anyone to want to spend the time to develop a rooting method I tried moding some exploits and running them through SuperOneClick and similar tools and even tried manually through the android developer's tool kit, and ssh-ing into my phone to no avail so moding some code and making a custom img is kinda outta the question plus my c++ is rusty and would only be suitable for command line apps also I'm betting the source for Google's search bar is closed, further more it's probably in Java, I'm more of a web dev now-a-days... I'd have a better chance with JS. I'll bet you're right though. I'm still gonna leave this open for a day or so though just to see if anything pans out. Thank you for your reply though.
